Site-specific integrase-mediated transgenesis in mice via pronuclear injection.
Microinjection of recombinant DNA into zygotic pronuclei has been widely used for producing transgenic mice. However, with this method, the insertion site, integrity, and copy number of the transgene cannot be controlled. Here, we present an integrase-based approach to produce transgenic mice via pronuclear injection, whereby an intact single-copy transgene can be inserted into predetermined ch...
متن کاملSubstrate sequence selection by retroviral integrase.
Integration of retrovirus DNA is a specific process catalyzed by the integrase protein acting to join the viral substrate DNA (att) sequences of about 10 bases at the ends of the long terminal repeat (LTR) to various sites in the host target cell DNA. Although the interaction is sequence specific, the att sequences of different retroviruses are largely unrelated to one another and usually diffe...
متن کاملEfficient and Specific Internal Cleavage of a Retroviral Palindromic DNA Sequence by Tetrameric HIV-1 Integrase
BACKGROUND HIV-1 integrase (IN) catalyses the retroviral integration process, removing two nucleotides from each long terminal repeat and inserting the processed viral DNA into the target DNA. It is widely assumed that the strand transfer step has no sequence specificity. However, recently, it has been reported by several groups that integration sites display a preference for palindromic sequen...
متن کاملEfficient site-specific transgenesis and enhancer activity tests in medaka using PhiC31 integrase
Established transgenesis methods for fish model systems allow efficient genomic integration of transgenes. However, thus far a way of controlling copy number and integration sites has not been available, leading to variable transgene expression caused by position effects. The integration of transgenes at predefined genomic positions enables the direct comparison of different transgenes, thereby...
متن کاملBiochemical Characterization of Novel Retroviral Integrase Proteins
Integrase is an essential retroviral enzyme, catalyzing the stable integration of reverse transcribed DNA into cellular DNA. Several aspects of the integration mechanism, including the length of host DNA sequence duplication flanking the integrated provirus, which can be from 4 to 6 bp, and the nucleotide preferences at the site of integration, are thought to cluster among the different retrovi...
